About the Drug Response Predictor – DRP^® Companion Diagnostic
Allarity uses its drug specific DRP^® to select those patients who, by the genetic signature of their cancer, are found to have a high likelihood of responding to the specific drug. By screening patients before treatment, the response rate can be significantly increased. The DRP^® method builds on the comparison of sensitive vs. resistant human cancer cell lines, including genomic information from cell lines combined with clinical tumor biology and prior clinical trial outcomes. DRP^® is based on messenger RNA from the patient’s biopsies. DRP^® has proven its ability to provide a statistically significant prediction of the clinical outcome from drug treatment in cancer patients in nearly 40 clinical studies that were examined, including an ongoing, prospective Phase 2 trial. The DRP^® platform can be used in all cancer types and is patented for more than 70 anti-cancer drugs.
